Hello, i won some tickets from Spin&Go, few $5.50 and 2 $11. Tried to get to $215 Sunday Million, but no lcuk. And i played $11 Sunday Stom, and this happened. Fucking runner runner....
I watched how you finished the game and it's certainly very unpleasant .... wonderful chances of winning and such an unexpected and sad ending .... but this is poker and here I already do not wonder at anything .... and I had something like this and of course it's very unpleasant .... good luck

77 vs K9o - A set of Sevens on the flop destroyed by a runner runner flush... It was really unfortunate for you. You were a huge favorite over your opponent's King Nine unsuited on the flop.
Good luck with your next tournament.

Time is running very fast, I still remember the time when this tournament wasn't called Sunday Storm, and Pokerstars made a big promotion to celebrate its new name... and now 7 years have passed already. What were your results guys? Hope you done well

I guess the player 9 decided to cold-call preflop with King Nine off suit just because he was on the button. His preflop play wasn't so awful, but his call on the turn was really questionable.

Congratulations, Samarietis! How much did you win?
yesterday at the final table got two kings and since the stack was the smallest of five players went olline .... and at the table there was a man who answered me with an ace and 5 .... the third card on the table is an ace and I finish the tournament on the fifth place .... happens all
Very unfortunate outcome after you flopped a set. But considering how crazy these tournaments are (with thousands of players) I suggest to consider either fold or shove with a small pair from UTG. With a small raise (2,5 BB) you invited that agro with a big stack to see the flop and after he hit a top pair there was no way he was folding.

schmoyster many tournaments are crazy but this hand is a weird one. Let's take into account the bots that are real. I can not win a hand like this in pokerstars in 11 dollars tournaments but to lose in this way it happens many times. Because of this i hate the pokerstars, because she did not give me anything. I won nothing here and i won't win, is a grotesque soft.

It's not that bad PokerStars. I have like 70-80% Win rate. Henwon with that 20-30%... În flop calling with k9 o all-in is stupid as f**k but he got lucky. Either way, i like PokerStars, i won big in it. 1st place in $2,20, got $1200. And many more. Have a nice day and gl.

Well done, Samarietis. You were very patient. That's an excellent return on your investment.

flop
qzmag, you were a clear favorite and miles ahead when the chips went in the middle on the flop. You did what you had to do in that circumstance. (C-betting the flop instead of checking is also a valid option, I guess.) Better luck next time.

qzmag for me pokerstars would not be bad but their software does not help me at all when it comes to earning more money in a tournament. I did not have a chance and this is unacceptable. Others earn money because they have big luck with cards. In my life i did not get good cards in pokerstars (except for free games). The strategy counts a lot but those who earn good sums are also helped by softwares. I was not helped by software in pokerstars because i lost with horrible hands but to win in this way i could not. Because of this i did not succeed here. Those who always vote for me with minus when i talk about pokerstars he does not know how i lost in this miserable software. I'm glad that pokerstars are down on the numberof players and others rooms rise.
